Let's look at the different interior design fields

Reals estate firms also employ the services of interior design consultants to help 'up' the property's appealto potential buyers. You can also work with furniture firms, be self-employed, or work independently.
Lighting designing
Lighting design is important for all interior spaces, and many interior designers work solely in this niche. In modular homes, this aspect has become of utmost importance. Lighting changes and enhances the look and feel of the place; hence, this field is in demand now. Lighting design services may also include creative illuminations of exterior structures like fountains, parks, monuments, and other outdoor landmarks. As a lighting designer, you must decide and choose the types, styles, arrangements, and amount of lighting that's best for the interior space
